Really?? At Pfaff? I have only rec'd the "Jetta" once when I came in unplanned. I asked how many loaners they have and was quite surprised that they have 45 !!! They claim to have the largest fleet of loaners and still can't promise a P car as loaner. My car has been their since Monday and should be ready to pick up on Saturday. Have a brand new Cayenne loaner. They don't have any Macans yet as loaners.

Yep at Pfaff. Great dealer but I only get Jetta's. This is my 4th new 911. Go figure.

True, but if it gets them out of the house for a bit...

Agreed. This is marketing 101. But many dealers just don't get it. Pinch a few pennies up front and lose out on pcar sales at the back end. Senseless.

You may not get too jealous about the boxster until your wife puts 25,000 miles on it and still has the original rear tires.

My son has taken to calling the boxster the Porschette and is speculating on what kind of offspring they might produce. Perhaps a 4 cylinder turbocharged 2 seater?

That's unfortunate! I have only bought 1 new 911, Cayenne and Tiguan from Stu. I have a Macan S on order as well, but they take care of me very well in service too. Have had Cayenne's and Panamera's as loaners for the everything at Pfaff. I only got the Jetta from tuning when they put Fabspeed exhaust on my Cayenne. A BMW horrible little sedan once from Pfaff service. I am 1.5 hours from them so maybe that is a factor?
